CONFIDENTIAL
Press Conference #1
At the White House, Executive Offices
March 8th, 1933 - 10.10 A.M.
(Mr. Young introduced the members of
the Press to the President.)
THE PRESIDENT: It is very good to see you all and my
hope is that these conferences are going to be
merely enlarged editions of the kind of very de-
lightful family conferences I have been holding
in Albany for the last four years.
I am told that what I am about to do will be-
come impossible, but I am going to try it. We are
not going to have any more written questions and of
course while I cannot answer seventy-five or a hun-
dred questions because I simply haven't got the
physical time, I see no reason why I should not talk
to you ladies and gentlemen off the record just the
way I have been doing in Albany and the way I used to
do it in the Navy Department down here. Quite a num-
ber of you, I am glad to see, date back to the days of
the previous existence which I led in Washington.
(Interruption -- "These two boys are off for Ari-
zona." John and Franklin Roosevelt saying "good-bye".)
And so I think we will discontinue the practice
of compelling the submitting of questions in writing
before the conference in order to get an answer.
